Hi Kashyap,

Thanks for your reply, and I am sorry for lack of information.

I am using mpt fusion driver version 3.04.10.

What setup information do you need?

My PC consists of two Intel Quad-core Xeon E5430 2.66~GHz, Intel 5100 chipset,
and 4 GB memory (DDR2-667). OCZ Z-Drive p84 is plugged into a
PCI-Express x8 lane.

Here is my test script:

#!/bin/bash

BS=$((1024))
COUNT=$((1024*1024*10))

for i in 1 4 16 64 256 512 1024 2048 4096 8192 16384 32768 65536; do
        bs=$((BS * i))
        count=$((COUNT / i))

        echo bs=$bs count=$count
        sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/test
        dd if=/dev/zero of=/media/test/foo bs=$bs count=$count
        sudo umount /media/test
        sleep 1
        sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/test
        dd if=/media/test/foo of=/dev/null bs=$bs count=$count
        rm /media/test/foo
        sudo umount /media/test
done

This script assumes the Z-drive is /dev/sdb1 and it is mounted on /media/test.

Best regards,
Ryousei
